> Just .GetAwaiter().GetResult() it.
That won’t work with various synchronization contexts, where doing this would cause a deadlock. There’s not much fun in trying to debug such issues.
And now that various libraries only provide async api, or worse an non-async version wrapping the async one with . GetAwaiter().GetResult(), you’ll be in for a treat updating your dependencies.
Async all the way is the answer, although various frameworks still don’t offer async hooks. Recently I ran into this for example trying to write an async validator in blazor, but that’s not possible and you have to work around it [1].
C# 5 introduced async/await almost 12 years ago. And we’re still not “async all the way”.

Project mention: How to Use the Foreign Function API in Java 22 to Call C Libraries | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-08Async/await is not a tight corner as showcased by a multitude of languages adopting the pattern: Rust, Python, JavaScript and Swift.
In fact, it is a clean abstraction where future progress is possible while retaining the convenience of its concurrency syntax and task composition.
Green threads experiment proved net negative in terms of benefit but its the follow-up work on modernizing the implementation detail was very successful: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/94620 / https://github.com/dotnet/runtimelab/blob/feature/async2-exp...
It also seems that common practices in Java indicate that properties are not a mistake as showcased by popularity of Lombok and dozens of other libraries to generate builders and property-like methods (or, worse, Java developers having to write them by hand).
Recently, my friends and I recreated our old LAN parties. Went up to a cabin in the woods, brought some cheap network switches, and had everyone install OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/, open red alert), and had a blast, even with everyone on laptops (mac/win). You can still do this in 2024 and it's worth it!
Project mention: Multi-tenancy using schemas with Entity Framework and PostgreSQL | dev.to | 2023-10-16* You can check the original CreateMigration implementation at: https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/blob/release/7.0/src/EFCore.Relational/Migrations/Internal/MigrationsAssembly.cs
To highlight this shift, we are introducing a new website which is now fully automated with Github. The paint is still fresh, but we hope to expand it with more information about the MonoGame Foundation, like how it operates, and how to join it or contribute.
You probably noticed that .SetName() returns a Either. You may have come across Unit in libraries like MediatR or Language-Ext. It's a simple construct representing a type with only one possible value. We use it as a placeholder for operations that do not return a value but may return another state. In our example, .SetName() is a Command that does not return a value but may fail. Therefore, the monad Either carries two possible states: Right (without value) or Left (with an Error).
Why should they? But be sure to use Open Source Projects like https://github.com/JustArchiNET/ArchiSteamFarm or https://github.com/JonasNilson/idle_master_extended so that no funny business happens due to your account due to shady idler programs. Idler programs simply mimic what you're doing and Steam doesn't care about you actually played the game or idled the time since Playtime is IR-reversible and the more you idle, the more you can't refund the game which suits them well.
